Season average 2509.



It ain't over til the fat bird sings

They'll now say that you must have academy set-up to get in, anyway, superb crowd today, I was waiting 10 minutes in queue to get in turnstile

It was that busy people were even queueing on the pitch!

Like your fire procedures as reported in one of the rugby rags. The stand was evacuated onto the pitch, however the people in the disabled section just stayed where they were.

I can't help but feel that clubs outside the Super League are being let down and fans are not turning up to matches because they have nothing to play for. It appears that The RFL does not care about heartlands teams like Halifax. Rugby League is only going to decrease in popularity if things carry on as they are.

reading and replying to many of the points put across, i am coming to the conculsion



it all boils down to, you can put all the rules and regs u wnat in place, the fairest system universal around the world adopted in the vast majority of sports is promotion and relegation, if a team does not wnat to go up, then dont, however if a team/club wants the opportunity to be promoted let them, dont put rules made up to excluded in they way (just beause its austrailan, does not make it any good!)



Clubs like, Fax, Widnes, Whithaven, Workington, Salford, Castelford, Fev, and more are all steappd in Rugby leauge history and at one time or another have been winners in cup and league.



to now excluded them is nothing short of murder to the game of rugby league

A franchise system may work in Australia but Rugby League a bigger sport over there so that's okay. It does not work in Western Europe.

Messers Wood and Lewis need educating to this fact!

I have no problem with expansion. It hurts me to see Gateshead struggling. I love it when South Wales Scorpions and London Scolars beat traditional Heartland teams. I say that because these teams try and do things properly by using local or atleast players who come from that area rather than a heap of Aussies who have no connections. I wish Fax would use more Halifax born or atleast British players.

I see no point in shoving teams like Crusaders, Quins into SL when they are not ready for it off the field. Yes Crusaders have done better this year on and off the pitch. But first Wrexham is just a short drive for many and so more away fans will attend. And where are the Welsh players from Crusaders? Quins how the hell they are existing I will never know and despite bringing through some British talent I do not see them lasting much longer.

Promotion and Relegation should be used and we all have the same points system and Quota. One rule for all! If a team is losing money they should not be allowed to be promoted. Under the present, system Fax could have stayed in SL despite being a joke and having to sell everyone in our last season in SL. How the hell does that do anybody any good? If Bradford, Salford, Quins, Catalans etc finish bottom they should be relegated. It angers me the idiots at Red Hall seem to only think of the SL Clubs and nobodyelse.

can say was about to set up but not bothered now cant have one from next season.

South Wales Scorpions

The word expansion should be replaced in RFL documents by expulsion.

This tends to be something we can all see, yes were not ready, but what if we were, and still couldn't get through this cruddy process. Theres no point in being livid in another 3 years time, it needs sorting now.

I dont personally beleive SL is as good as people make out, and i don't think its impossible not to have a crack and make the grade (stay up)

Yesterdays evacuation at the Shay should also highlight to the RFL that our process although not as slick as it could have been, could have been a lot worse if real and at one of the older grounds, the RFL should really look this seriously, its more than image and PR, some of the SL grounds are atrocious and dangerous in comparison.
